Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation In test TA, 24 species (80%) had high survival of 100% after drastic pruning.
- Observation In test TB, no differences were observed between pruning heights.
- Intervention effect In test TB, pruning at 15 cm and at collar level showed better values.
- Recommendation Pruning some native tree species is recommended to resume growth and improve the height/diameter ratio in nurseries.
